Abstract
This article examines the current socio-economic and cultural challenges in Iran, exploring how public engagement in foreign-led economic indicators like the dollar and gold markets inflicts broader societal issues. Social theorists believe, issues such as addiction, divorce, and unethical behaviors are symptoms of a deeper systemic crisis tied to cultural repression, economic instability, and misaligned social priorities. The analysis highlights how a focus on secondary economic symbols, particularly in a volatile economic climate, distorts public attention away from critical areas of societal health and development. Ultimately, this article argues for a reassessment of economic and social priorities in Iranian society, highlighting the importance of foundational socio-economic health over reactive attention to market volatility.
